ALERT ALERT ALERT……The TN Sheriffs’ Association is starting to receive calls from members that scammers are calling them representing themselves as the Tennessee Sheriffs’ Association and asking for their financial information. At least one has already provided financial information and we advised them to contact his financial organization immediately and follow the proper procedures through that entity. We do know that call came through a Virginia based number. We ask that you share the following on all your social media accounts (Facebook link is listed below) Twitter, etc. and any news media avenue you possibly can to help spread the word.
Also, I have posted this to our TSA Facebook page and ask that you share: https://www.facebook.com/Tennessee-Sheriffs-Association-196553893765277/
TSA DOES NOT TELEMARKET. If someone calls you claiming to represent the Tennessee Sheriffs’ Association, PLEASE HANG UP! TSA NEVER solicits money over the PHONE!!! Please be vigilant with these scammers and let them know TSA does not Telemarket their members and NEVER provide them with your financial information!!!
TSA’s 2018 Memberships have been mailed and we are receiving reports that numerous phone solicitors are contacting TN Citizens representing our Association and asking for donations and their payment information. All 95 Sheriffs have been made aware of this issue and receive a copy of all our membership renewal packet.
Thank You and as Always, We appreciate your Membership and Support!
